Remacon Products

Remacon Products cc was established in August 2004 by Silvio Ferraris and is the Gauteng licensee for Terraforce.

A qualified civil engineering technician (T4 Civil) with an IMM, Ferraris has been involved in the construction industry since 1987, first with Grinaker Precast and then Echo Floors as sales and marketing manager and as general manager of Smartstone Midrand. At Grinaker Precast he was responsible for the intellectual property of the company’s products, including retaining blocks and stadium seating.

Ferraris has a long association with the Concrete Manufacturers Association (CMA) where he has held the positions of vice president for both the paving and the crb divisions. ReMaCon Products is also licensed to market two TERRAFORCE crb ranges, the L11 in smooth face and the L18 in split face finish, as well as the erosion control systems, Terrafix 120 blocks, and the Terracrete grass block.

There is a trend in the industry demanding better quality as well as a more professional approach to retaining wall block structures. To this end, ReMaCon Products offers engineer design services, thereby guaranteeing the integrity of the structure. The installation of CRB structures is undertaken by specialist CRB contractors.

Terraforce blocks lend themselves, among many other applications, to creating beautiful terraced gardens, heavy duty retaining and erosion control, for storm water, river bank and sea shore protection. This is the original shape of Terraforce blocks. It can turn tighter corners due to it’s shorter shape. more
